Ear Candy

From New Horizons, 5:00 pm on 29 December 2016

William Dart sticks his ears into the musical equivalent of sugar. But with luscious songs by Dewi Lestari, Linda Thompson, The High Llamas, Billy Preston and Syreeta, and The Lonely Heartstring Band among others, there are no health downsides here.
